In San Diego, I'm 14...I know I got a pretty decent moustache and goatee already....and I'm 5'4, but seriously....

Some old black guy told me to clean up his table so he could eat. If I weren't confused as to who or what he was talking about, I would've given him a good ol classic "omgwtfrofflelol><0rzbbq" expression and walked away. But instead, I walked away.

hehehe. I know the feeling. I was mistaken for a valet when I was 15. We were waiting outside of a 'fancy' resturant for the second half of our group (friend's b-day).

Some woman tried to pick me up in a supermarket while I was holidaying in Jakarta when I was 12.

I wish I could up those and say i've been mistaken for a bum, but unfortunately, I haven't. Yet.

Quite a few people thought I was a cop for some reason... *shrugs* at least I got mistaken for having a much cooler job.


[annoying teens] :sniper:

;)

I've been mistaken for being gay before.

That's about it.

i called a restaurant to book a table. i was about 15 then. the lady asked for my surname. i told her, and she replied me with "miss".

i'm 17 now. nowadays i'm often mistaken for my father. the other day i called my friend for the first time and she said i sounded like an adult.

goodness. at least i grew!

I actually have been.
Hey, it was 3 in the morning, and I was waiting for my train home to arrive. Can I be blamed for lying down on one of the benches? :P

Maybe time to shave that thing off? I mean it is kind of weird for a kid your age to want to have one. But I guess kids these days don't care.

Fear not, for every dog has his day!

Been there. Done that. More than once.

Haha you called me Dude. I'm too old for dude but yes it is funny when teenagers grow facial hair and try to be cool. The point is it takes more then a DSM to make you into a man. For instance: getting a loan for a house, getting married and supporting a family.

Yeah, I am certainly not ready for that stuff. I'll just go to school and enjoy my youth while I can. Dude :p

Some lady called me up once looking for somebody named Crabcake. She then proceeded to call me an asshole. I simply responded with a confused sounding OK. It turns out she was looking for some other chap named Crabcake. She apologized and hung up.

i think all facial hair looks silly, no matter how old the guy is.

Except sometimes a bit of stubble can be quite sexy

I actually have been.

They actually run trains at 3AM where you live? Wow! They stop at midnight here- a real bitch if you miss it and are stuck in the city all night (its happened...)

LOL. Guess i've got to try harder.

I dont grow my facial hair, and I certainly dont grow it to be cool. I just cbf shaving :D

Yes go outside and play games of lawn darts, snort your pixie sticks, and try to get some (and if you don't just lie to your homies). Ah yes, the joys of youth!

I walked into my Early American Literature class this summer and just started talking to people (they were talking about literature, and I'm pretty well-versed) and one of the girls was like, "Are you the professor?" I was like, "I'm not paying to take my own class."

Well, I wouldn't use the plural. If I had fallen asleep and missed the train, the next one would have arrived more than 2 hours later.
And it was in the main trainstation in Holland anyway, Utrecht Central.

Actually, my facial hair is there because if I shave it off, it'll come back faster and thicker. It's bad enough as is with me trimming it.

But I like the moustache...mwahahahaha...

i bet people make fun of you though Colodia

Then just shave it every morning.

yeah, in Middle-School. Although I wasn't attacked everyday, I became extrememly paranoid.

Now, in High-School, it seems like no one notices it. I heard most people don't even know I'm a freshman :D

Then just shave it every morning.
yeah, that's the argument I give to my parents to ensure that I don't lose everything I have thanks to a grounding.

Then they counter with pimples and black-heads...

I once got punched in the back of the head by a complete stranger. When I turned round she said "I thought you were someone else! Sorry!" and ran off.

My girlfriend claims a Morrocan Sheik offered two camels to her mum in exchange for her.

^dang thats a sweet deal! ;)

Hey, thats not a bad price. We only got a dromadary for my little brother.

I was mistaken for being a 37 year old teacher complete with college degree. I am 17 and was 17 at the time.

I have been mistaken for a PA State Trooper (by a PA State Trooper no less) as well. That was fun.

-Fury

since 7th and 8th grade, people have had tendencies to ask me "what my major is". some people go far enough to say even "so when did you graduate from college?", etc

and at the camp i was at this summer, it was a college choir camp thing, quite a few people thought i was a student there/counsellor thing.

i was like "no.. i'm younger than you in fact.."

haha... hooorah for janitors"
